  1. 3.5 inches of snow as of 5am and flake sizes have increased as I start to get into the band hitting terpest right now. Though from 4:30 to 5am snowfall rates decreased from .8 to .5 an hour, I assume from subsidence as the band got closer.
  2. Cannot wait. Any chance of thundersnow with this forcing or no?
  3. Pictures from this morning taken on a D850 with 24-120 f/4 lens
  4. My bar right now is to beat the Jan 3rd storms 7.4 inches which seems pretty likely at this point! Would be nice to try and get over 10+ to make it the biggest storm since 2016
  5. When do you think the heaviest bands setup out near Reston?
  6. Can’t wait for the heavier bands to start approaching me. Just measured 3.2 so have held a steady .8 inch per hour rates since 2:30am
  7. 2.25 inches at 3:30am near Reston, so roughly .8 inch per hour
  8. When should the firehose really get going? Would be nice to sleep a little more till then
  9. Recorded 1.8 inches of snow near Reston
  10. I assume that since you’re pretty close by You’ve had the same snow type as me. Woke up after a 2 hour nap and expected some larger flakes but still seems to be coming down pretty well, so should I be worried at all by the pixie dust nature of the snowfall so far?
  11. Super small pixie dust flakes have started in reston, only at 74% humidity so still got a ways to go
  12. Reston always likes to be the last location to start snowing in these storms
  13. In the last 10 minutes my weather stations humidity has shot up to 70% and dew point from 12 to 21 degrees
  14. While some of us near DC wait for the snow to start the 0z GFS for next weekend looks fun if you head over to the long range thread
  15. Just wondering if this apparent dry area on radar is actually real or just the result of the radar. I’m aware there’s sometimes some issues looking southwest from sterling
  16. Been trying to nap since 7:30 but caved and checked the forum to see the what the high res models where showing, seems like everything is still looking great. Hopefully will be able to fall asleep some till it starts snowing
  17. 30.9 degrees and thickening clouds
  18. Does any met want to chime in on if thundersnow could even be a possibility for anyone in the forum? I know Kansas City and some other places have had some with this storm so far
  19. Well we at least get one more run of HRRR going crazy with foot plus totals
  20. Turns out this was pretty much all of us
  21. Can't wait for the stuff over Ohio if it can make it to us
  22. The wraparound stuff should still be decent (if not better) than the 18z runs
  23. It gets rid of the sleet that has been plaguing NOVA at 12z Monday
  24. Nam def will be south, may be not great for the northern crew which has been hugging it but still early in its run.
